Series: A Wrangler’s Creek Novel
Every town needs a bad boy, and Wrangler’s Creek’s has
been gone far too long…
Getting his high school girlfriend pregnant was just one
square in Roman Granger’s checkered past, but it changed him forever. When his
son’s mother skipped town after the birth, Roman decided to do the same, baby
Tate in tow, hoping for a fresh start.
Now Roman fears his teenage son is following in his wayward
footsteps, so he returns home to Wrangler’s Creek, aiming to set him straight.
It’s there he encounters Tate’s cousin Mila Banchini, the good-girl opposite of
Roman who’s had a crush on him since childhood. The old spark between them
undeniably never died, though Roman worries it’ll only lead to heartache. But
if falling for Mila is such a bad idea, why does everything about holding her
feel so right?
Branded as Trouble is the third book in this series While my least favorite of the series, I still enjoyed it. This is Roman's story. Mila is a friend and has been in love with Roman for years. She is also over 30 and still a virgin. She would love for Roman to be her first, but who knows if that will ever happen. Roman's son Tate is going through a rough patch and moving back to the ranch he hates seems to be the best idea for the time being.
As I said, this one wasn't my favorite, I just didn't really feel the pull between Roman and Mila. I mean, I was told it was there and the attraction was there, but I didn't really see Roman fall in love with her. I think there was just too much going on in the background with Tate and his issues in school and his mother. As well as Roman's mother, Belle, and her love life. Not to mention Mila's mother dropping her revelation about Mila's father. The story just felt too unfocused, so the love story was lost to me.
Despite all of that, I did love the humor in the book. Belle is such a fun character because of her unpredictability. I also loved to catch up with Sophie and Clay as well. This is a fun series and I do recommend it. I look forward to seeing what happens in the next book.
